Best place to buy
My current tyres are boring me with their drone and constant flicking mud down the side of my car!

Think I'm going to replace them with BFGs or Coopers (not decided yet). Standard size 235 85 16. Where is best (read cheapest) to buy? I'm in North Herts

It depends on the day and which tyre. I ended up going online and getting fitted at a local place, worked out cheapest overall.

Oponeo, Mytyres, Camskill are my usual haunts. Blackcircles on occasion too.

Mostly on topic, I had a similar dilemna on tyres recently and went for 265/85 Cooper STmaxx. Very happy with them. Very quiet on the road.

Off to wales laning this weekend so will see if they're any good off the tarmac!

not tried it with the Def as its on the originals but with the BM I have found that Halfords Auto Centers will match or beat any price I can prove is genuine. part of their price match policy, have noted at mine they also always check the approved torque and use a torque wrench to refit the do the final tighten on the fasteners DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,

I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy
